Important Instructions for Maharashtra HSC 2027 Application Form
Verify Your Details Carefully
After the applications are submitted, the Pre-List will be made available through the College Login. Your Junior College will print and verify the details against the General Register.
You should carefully check the information in the application form and sign the pre-list to confirm that your details are correct. The Principal will also sign and stamp every page of the pre-list.
This verification is important as the Board has noted that errors can occur in details such as the student's name and date of birth.
Check Your APPAR-ID
If your APPAR-ID is available, it should be noted while filling in the application form.
Check Your Application and Payment Status
After the prescribed fees are deposited, the college should verify that:
- The application status changes from “Draft” to “Send to Board”.
- The payment status changes from “Not Paid” to “Paid”.
Only applications showing “Send to Board” and “Paid” status will be considered as received by the Board for further processing.
